I'm a 25-year-old entrepreneur and made the decision that school wasn't for me quite early. I've been hustling my way around since I was 15 years old and in one way or other received revenue from online sources. more ...

My name is Amanda Walkins and I consider myself to be a serial expat. I currently live on the Mediterranean island of Malta, after living briefly in Ireland, over a year in Scotland, and three years in Honduras. more ...

I moved to Malta in June 2010. My boyfriend and I had just met and were looking for a fresh start. We were sick of the dreary concrete jungle we called home and unsatisfied in our jobs. We wanted a new life, sun, sea...and jobs! As we worked in iGaming already Malta seemed the perfect choice.

What challenges did you face during the move?
